Event Work Examples

The Purpose

To bring awareness to the Digital Innovator Summit and provide event updates to those who are interested in topics surrounding marketing.

Our Goal

To establish Nex Gen Dynamics as a knowledgeable and active voice in the marketing industry.

Marketing Strategy

Before The Event:

We planned and strategized for each social platform and organized all the information we would need before promoting the event including speaker names, speaker social media handles/usernames, applicable hashtags, locations to tag, and more.

During The Event:

We live-tweeted during the event by using Twitter threads. This keeps the tweets organized and it allows for easy referencing and viewing later on.

The thing that surprises marketers is probably how much more they know about things then what maybe average people understand (digital metrics, CTRs, Conversions, etc) #Innovator18

By tweeting direct quotes from the speakers, we were able to be a source of knowledge to those who were interested in keeping up with the presentations, as well as provide publicity benefits to the speakers by emphasizing their knowledge and impact.

Seth talks about how Will Smith got started on @YouTube. “His first video felt like a DVD” Now… He’s says “I’m finding my voice, there so much to say” his channel took off when he got scrappy and accepted a challenge from his fans #Innovator18

We used the official event hashtag (#innovator18), to reach the speakers and attendees of the event, in addition to others who were following the event remotely.

By tagging the speakers, we were able to reach them and their audience, and show validation for the information we tweeted.

We structured the blog post as an informational marketing piece rather than a specific play by play of the event. This keeps the content evergreen and will allow us to repurpose it and update it if we were to share it again at a later time.

Within the blog post, we included links to the Twitter profiles of the speakers that were mentioned. We chose to do this because Twitter was the biggest platform for discussion on this event.

Additionally, including these links allows us to demonstrate accuracy, give proper credit and attribution to quotes, images, and references, and potentially establish connections in the industry.

We shared the blog post on social media to expand our reach to a wider audience who may have been at the event or may have an interest in the topics discussed at the event.

By implementing this marketing strategy, we were able to expand our potential reach to Digital Megaphone’s 3,000+ Facebook followers, along with the followers of powerful social media influencers.

Sharing our blog on Twitter by tagging Digital Megaphone and using the proper event hashtag led Digital Megaphone to like our tweet, further expanding our potential reach to their 7,000+ Twitter followers.

Actively live-tweeting allowed us to connect on Twitter and in real life with influencers at the event. By forming these relationships in the marketing industry, we are able to build up our reputation in the digital community.

The Purpose

To bring awareness to Digital Summit and provide event updates to those who are interested in topics surrounding marketing.

Our Goal

To establish Nex Gen Dynamics as a knowledgeable and active voice in the marketing industry and to raise brand awareness.

By tweeting direct quotes from the speakers, we were able to be a source of knowledge to those who were interested in keeping up with the presentations. By including real-time photos and videos within those tweets, followers can feel like they are actually at the event and they are more inclined to keep up with our tweets.

We used the official event hashtag (#DSCHI), to reach the speakers and attendees of the event, in addition to others who were following the event remotely.

By tagging the speakers, we were able to reach them and their audience, and show validation for the information we tweeted.

We also shared updates on our Instagram Story throughout the event, showing photos and videos behind-the-scenes of our experience at the event. This helped to build excitement and interest in the event, in hopes that our digital audience would stay connected with it.

After The Event:

After the event, we shared a video recap of our experience. This video was a quick summary and a teaser of the exciting highlights that were captured. This creates a sense of anticipation among viewers to keep checking back for longer videos from the event.

We shared the video on social media by tagging the official Digital Summit account, along with key speakers to expand our reach.

We also created another Twitter thread out of it that included retweets of our live-tweets, allowing people to catch up if they missed out.

Digital Summits liked and retweeted our thread with the video recap, and they shared our Facebook post with the video recap. This expanded our potential reach to their 18,000+ Facebook followers and their 6,000+ Twitter followers.

We also received likes and retweets from several of the event speakers that we referred to on Twitter. This gave us a larger reach to their audiences, providing us an opportunity to potentially grow our own audience. The following are noteworthy speakers that interacted with our tweets:

The Purpose

To bring awareness to the power of social media and educate those who want to improve the social media presence of their business.

Our Goal

To demonstrate that Nex Gen Dynamics’ team is knowledgeable in social media marketing and all related disciplines. Also to reach potential new clients, grow our audience, and be a reliable source of knowledge in our industry.

Marketing Strategy

Before The Event:

Before the event, we created a graphic to share in a social media post.

The graphic included the BGLCC logo and our own logo, to provide validation and to reflect that Nex Gen Dynamics would be represented at this event.

The social media post was meant to bring awareness to the event and potentially bring in more interested people. It included a link to more information on how to buy a ticket, providing the opportunity for more attendees.

We tagged BGLCC in the post to establish validity to and to potentially reach a wider audience.

During The Event:

During the event, we did a live video stream on Facebook. This allowed us to reach a wider audience outside of just those who were physically present at the event.

It also helped us to validate ourselves as a knowledge source by providing live insight on social media marketing.

We were also active on our Instagram story right before the presentation started to show photos and videos behind-the-scenes and the networking that took place. This helped to build excitement and interest in the event, in hopes that our digital audience would stay connected with it.

Later on, we added the Instagram stories to a highlights section on our profile to preserve the content.

Results:

By live-streaming the event, Nex Gen Dynamics not only received more exposure in the local community, but also in the locations of those watching online.

Educating the community on social media marketing at this event provided us with validation of knowledge on our services to help local communities.

As a result of our efforts, companies have reached out for more information and inquiries about our services or sent us follow-up questions after the event.

This event also allowed us to connect with local businesses and establish ourselves in the community. In the long run, this will help us to become more well-known in the area and prompt people to recommend our services to other businesses.

Looking to grow your business primarily using social media? The undeniable truth is social media is a platform for real networking, growth, and engagement for any size business irrespective of the industry. It is a fact that finding customers on social media has a direct impact on sales and your bottom line.
